Cloning a Database
Create a database from an existing Oracle ACFS database.
Cloning enables to:
•
Create a database from another database without bringing down the source
database
•
Create multiple databases from a gold image, thus ensuring standardized mass
deployments
•
Optimize space utilization, by use of Oracle ACFS snapshots in cloning
•
Create different types of databases, from a single source database type. For
example, you can create single-instance databases, Oracle RAC databases, or
Oracle RAC One Node databases from any type of source database
•
Depending on the available memory and CPU cores, specify a supported
database shape such as
odb1s
,
odb2
, and so on, to create any class of database
from any source database.
Following are the prerequisites to clone a database:
•
Ensure that Oracle Clusterware is running on all nodes, and the source database
is up and running.
•
The source database must use Oracle ACFS storage.
•
The source database must not be a multitenant container databases (CDBs)
•
The ADVM compatibility of Oracle ASM disk groups must be set to 18c or later.
•
Oracle Flex ASM must be enabled.
•
The source database must be the primary database.
•
The source database must not be in the OPEN state.
•
The source database must not be in backup mode.
•
The source database must be in archive mode.
Follow this procedure to clone a database:
1.
Run the
odacli clone-database
command.
odacli clone-database --databaseUniqueName --dbname --dbshape --dbtype |
SI --json
--sourcedbname --syspassword --tdepassword
Specify the unique name of the database, the name for the new database, the
database shape, the type of database, the source database name, password for
SYS user, and the TDE Wallet password. For information about all the command
options, see the ODACLI Command Reference chapter.
